Hello Kodi Team,

I've recently started using Kodi and thanks so much for opening up a whole new world/era of entertainment. I've just been on you website forum and read about pirateers selling boxes, using youtube etc.

I never realized I could be using addons you don't condone.

Could you just let me know how I can ensure that all of my addons are authentic Kodi. I will refresh mu programme and re configure using Kodi revitalize until I hear from you.

Kindest Regards,

denr

everything you install through the official kodi repository is trustworthy.

a list of things to avoid, can be found in our wiki:

As a rule of thumb, if an add-on is offering access for free to shows, movies or channels that you would normally have to pay for, it should be avoided.

The old adage is true here as everywhere else - if it seems too good to be true it probably is.

Thanks Both,

That's a great help to start me off. denr

Also a lot of these so called amazing wizard/addons have a lot of incoming and outgoing traffic when streaming from these addons which seem to have nothing to do with whats happening when using them as I did a little experiment with them.

If you've purchased a box with pre-installed Kodi the only way to be sure its clean it get rid of it completely and re-install unless your 100% clued up with kodi and know what needs deleted and what does not.
